This book thoroughly discuss the steps in using auto cad 2D and an opener in 3D autocad drafting. It uses a simple terms that anybody even not engineers can understand. Must buy for a beginner to intermediate autocad users.

The delivery from amazon really surprised me as the book arrives ahead of thier given arrival time. It arrives in two days only, supposedly shall arrive after 3-5 days. another 5 star rating for amazon's delivery system!

AUTOCAD 2006 AND AUTOCAD LT 2006: NO EXPERIENCE REQUIRED is a fine, basic introduction to a powerful program which once commanded the attention only of professionals. Any seeking to utilize the CAD software should have this manual in hand: it provides a set of tutorials which are sequentially arranged for step-by-step study - but it also can be used as an at-a-glance reference sourcebook for solving specific problems. From understanding coordinate systems and drawing routines to working with fills, text, external references and more, AutoCAD's powerful tools and drawing features are all detailed in depth.

I work for a survey company. I have never been to college and I am a self-taught AutoCAD user. I learned AutoCAD '02 with this book. Now I train guys and we buy this book for guys that have backgrounds with Microstation and are transitioning to AutoCAD.
